1. Media inflaming
Brod ,   USA   (02.24.13)
Israel's media should stop reporting about the Islamist-Jihadists just to inflame the fanatical minds of the dark forces to cause mayhem. There is no need to promote Israel's enemies. Israel is already facing existential threats from all sides. And the media seems to pose an existential threat from within.
2. One can only wonder at what deluded..
Chris.B ,   Australia   (02.24.13)
and sickening excuses will be made by the talkback fanatics over this story.Seems history has taught some people nothing. Little men with big guns against stone throwing prisoners.
3. In such cases,....
exUK ,   Tel Aviv   (02.24.13)
Why is there not both an Arab and Israeli presence at the autopsy. I am sad that this man died whatever the circumstances.However,it would be all too easy for either side to insist that their version of events was the truthful one.Ribs broken and bruises are expected when resuscitation is attempted. after cardiac arrest.Everyone knows this.\So there should be independent evidence,or joint cooperation in such cases.I dont know what this man was charged with.Does anyone know?
4. 2 people, 2 states -end occupation
David ,   NY   (02.24.13)
5. "PA: Autopsy shows detainee died of torture in Israeli jail"
A ,   Belgium   (02.24.13)
If the "PA" says it, than its a lie. Case closed.
6. Prisoners should not throw stones.
Robyn ,   Canada   (02.24.13)
First of all, they are prisoners for committing crimes.Second of all, I would like to see the reaction of the Aussie police( with the big guns) to a prison riot!. Third of all, if you think that stones( big ones) are not weapons of aggression, how would you like one thrown at you. Even better, how would you like a big boulder- like stone thrown at your windshield while travelling on a highway with a baby in the car.It has happened you know.
7. The ICC
e andrews ,   ireland   (02.24.13)
Time for the ICC to get involved and take these war criminals to the Hauge and put them behind bars where they belong
8. What these pictures tell
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.24.13)
What these pictures tell is not that "brutal occupation power" is "oppressing" "innocent civilians" rather a disciplined Israeli national army is exercising self defense to keep Arab squatters and foreigners calm and to calm down the violence and anger among them. It resembles police officers that are teaching the criminals (Arab squatters) that violence, racism and hatred is simply wrong and illegal and won't be tolerated.
9. 3 exUK, you need to learn to read
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (02.24.13)
the autopsy was conducted in the presence of a "Palestinian pathologist, several family members and a legal team from the Palestinian Authority's Prisoner Affairs office." this man's autopsy will have been one of the most and best documented in the history of autopsies. the autopsy did not show any signes of torture.
10. Israel is a war criminal
Patricia ,   Sydney, Australia   (02.24.13)
So, Israel has just tortured and murdered an indigenous person held without trial and all you worry about is the media! Have you no shame?
11. Abbas and Hamas have agreed on a "peaceful intifada"
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (02.24.13)
the two terror groups, fatah and hamas have agreed on what they call a "peaceful intifada." part of this peaceful intifada is rioting, rock throwing, stone slings, hunger strikes, and attacks on jews wherever they can attack them. contrary to what the deluded abbas and his foreign supporters think, this "peaceful intifada" will get him precisely nothing.
12. Shouldnt the headline read "No evidence of torture"?
Jayjay ,   Israel   (02.24.13)
Why is Ynet printing inflammatory headlines that, after reading the article, obviously are not true?
13. To nr 7 Who is the war criminal?
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.24.13)
14. To nr 4 - Arabs have already Jordan
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.24.13)
Jordan is 78% of the Jewish homeland. There are two states for two nations already: Jewish Israel and Arab Jordan. Now you seem to want to carve up the remaining 22% of the Jewish homeland. We Jews have 4000 years of history in all of Israel which includes Cis-Jordan, Trans-Jordan and southern Lebanon up until the bend of the Litani river and these are the legally defined borders that are stipulated in two legally binding documents called the San Remo treaty signed April 1920 and the Anglo-American treaty signed 3rd of December 1924. Get yourself an education and stop post garbage.
15. Irish nonsense
yesjb ,   Canada   (02.25.13)
The war criminals are behind bars in Israeli jails, at least some of them. The rest like Morsi, Assad, Abbas Ahmadinijad, get a free pass from you. As long as they condone genocide of Jews and the extermination of Israel they can't be war criminal. What BS!
16. like I believe PA ?
alsky ,   toronto   (02.25.13)
the ''Occupation"" of west bank is perfectly legal since Israel won the lands in defence wars. West bank was never a country, therefore nothing llegal here ! Build, higher and faster !
17. The Jews of the Middle East
Mike Lumish ,   Oakland, CA, USA   (02.24.13)
have been under Arab Occupation since the 7th century.
18. chris b Australia
Ron Bockman ,   Philly, U.S.A.   (02.25.13)
Come over and give them a hand
19. Patricia # 10
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (02.25.13)
That is according to ersatz Palestinian sources. They are never reliable. Have you no brains?
20. #7
Aaron ,   Toronto,Canada   (02.25.13)
It's time for another pint,you've said enough for today.
21. Tell that to the Palestinians! If they would have want a
Rachel   (02.25.13)
state they would have had one already! But if you listen to what they say in Arabic you would know that they want to eliminate Israel from the map and kill all the "apes and pigs"! It doesn't look you really know what's going on
22. How did you come to this conclusion? The autopsy showed
google Palywood   (02.25.13)
differently! Oh..,,,I understant...the Palestinians said so...then it must be true...
23. EXPECT MORE....
Colorado ,   USA   (02.25.13)
This will continue and worsen ahead of Obama the Uber-Haman's visit in March. I would say the entire region will heat up, then (drum roll) O will enter stage left to "set things right." Already paid (by Soros) blog trolls are showing up en masse on the ynet boards. O will say Netanyahu is the problem. O and his pathetic puppet Hagel want US and NATO boots on the ground in the West Bank, so there has to be a "reason." This is all pre-planned for the "agenda." Watch and learn. And learn fast.
24. 19 -No it is according to the pathological insititute
David ,   TA   (02.25.13)
of Israel. True they did not use the language murder, but by determining he was in good health and suffered no life threatening diseases they basically spelled murder. You need to stop starring all day long into Fox box and repeat nonsense by one of oue sick commentators here.
25. PALESTINIAN PRISONERS
Mark ,   T.a Israel   (02.25.13)
THESE PRISONERS ARE CRIMINALS WHO COMMIT CRIMES IN ORDER TO PASS THE WINTER IN A WARM PLACE WITH ALL THE LUXURY OF 5 STARS HOTEL ! LET THEM EXPULSE THEM TO HAMASTAN TO BE FED AND CARED BY THEIR BROTHERS ACCORDING THEIR WISH !
26. Oh well, occupational hazard....
tom ,   tel aviv   (02.25.13)
27. Execute ALL captured terrorists within 48 hrs. of capture.
Chaim ,   Israel   (02.25.13)
That would be justice for terror victims. It would save lives. Catch them. Interrogate them for information to catch other terrorists and prevent atrocities. Execute them within 48 hours of capture.
28. To nr 10 - Please explain: what makes Israel...
Alexander ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.25.13)
...a "war criminal"? Can you prove that Israel has "tortured" and "murdered" this person and can you prove that this person was an innocent Mother Theresa who never harmed a person in his life? And if you care so much about human life in general, I assume you also care about the 900.000 Jews that were expelled from the Arab states in the 1940s and 1950s and I also assume that you care about all the thousands of Jews that have been massacred by Arabs and Moslems for the past 1400 years? And I assume you also sympathize with Jews/Israelis that were butchered and massacred by Arab terrorists in Israel and all over the world over the past few decades? And if you specifically care about the Moslems I assume you care about the 10 million Moslems that have been killed by their fellow Moslems since 1945? Why do you Israel haters keep repeating over and over again like a tired old parrot suffering from amnesia and alzheimers that Arabs are the "natives" or "historical" or "indigenous" population in the land when history and archaeology clearly disprove absolutely every single statement claiming that Arabs or "Palestinians" are "native" to Israel? I mean do you honestly believe that if you keep repeating the same old lies, the lies will be true? Read a history book, ask any source produced by any ancient civilization, look up any ancient record belonging to any ancient civilization and tell me where you find these"indigenous" "Palestinian" "Arabs"? Because logically speaking, if they actually did exist in recorded history, there must be some mentioning of them somewhere at a certain point of time - right? "Palestinian" history invented in 1967 doesn't make them "indigenous". Speaking of real indigenous peoples and their human rights, are you telling me that you are a true "native" of Australia? Are British people of English, Irish, Welsh or Scottish ancestry the "true natives" of Australia...? What happened to the Aborigines Patricia?
30. 24, you have no understanding of "murder"
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (02.25.13)
murder requires intent. murder also requires proof of murder. an indeterminate cause of death is by definition not murder. if the cause of death were murder, it would be determined at time of autopsy.
